I remember their CES launch. 

 

It didn't have a kind of dynamics and groovy feelings I look for.

Shame that Zero doesn't have a better system!

Addicted to vinyl is one thing. Many of us here with modest LP collections that prefer the sound of vinyl to digital can claim to be addicted to vinyl. Zero has an obsession (as the BBC writer pointed out in the text). Great that he is diligently cleaning, storing, and cataloging his massive collection, but to what real practical means? To make it somehow available to the world? Wonderful in his altruistic intentions, how would this really pan out in the end? I don't see it happening.

Great article on this guy on the New York Times website. Probably how the Beeb found out about him. But someone please tell him not to store his LP's flat in his warehouse.
